To say that Rich Smith is a miricle-worker would be an understatement. Not only did he get us a great mortgage (from 5,000 kms away no less) but he also did so in a very short amount of time. We have dealt with two brokers in town...
To say that Rich Smith is a miricle-worker would be an understatement. Not only did he get us a great mortgage (from 5,000 kms away no less) but he also did so in a very short amount of time. We have dealt with two brokers in town before so I am confident in saying that Rich is THE best person to have on your side. He is productive, efficient, comitted, empathetic, and positive...when we would come across a road block and other brokers would say nothing else could be done, Rich found a way. Myself, my husband, and our children will forever be grateful for the work he put in to get us into our forever home.A few months ago my husband and I were just starting to look at the possibility of buying our first home.

A few months ago my husband and I were just starting to look at the possibility of buying our first home. It can be an overwhelming process to start, especially with the market being what it is. Rich proved to be an exceptional guide, with unending patience and thoughtful answers to our countless questions, he walked us through each step of the process. The Tekamar team went above and beyond, working tirelessly within a tight deadline to help us secure our dream home. Now happily settled, we cannot recommend their outstanding service enough. Their dedication and professionalism are truly unparalleled.5-stars! Thanks to everyone at Tekmar for making the mortgage process as quick and easy as possible.
Always had time to answer our many questions, they know what they're doing and didn't mind me doing my own research and bugging them with questions afterwards.

Before I stumbled upon Tekamar, I held a skeptical view of brokers, believing they were solely focused on their own interests and indifferent towards their clients. Well, let me tell you, Tekamar shattered that misconception. It couldn't be further from the truth. What surprised me the most was that they represent you without charging any additional fees. Tekamar's primary responsibility is to scour the market for great deals and reliable mortgage providers for your home. They excel at finding the best providers with the most favorable rates, all while negotiating on your behalf. Think about it, can you really surpass their expertise by embarking on a DIY mortgage search, approaching your credit union or bank without any industry knowledge? The answer is a resounding no. That's precisely why you need a broker. Tekamar goes above and beyond. I spent countless hours on the phone with Tom, discussing the process, and he effortlessly explained everything, taking me along on the journey. He consistently justified his decisions and provided insightful explanations. Every single time, I found myself in agreement with his judgment. They are consummate professionals. Not only did they secure us amazing rates, but they also made the entire process feel as smooth as butter. A heartfelt thank you to Tom and the entire team at Tekamar. You guys are truly exceptional.Purchasing can be a very stressful experience, but not with Amie! Nothing but an amazing experience. I work in the real estate industry and will be recommending others. Thank you so much again for making it as seamless as possible.

Ester at Tekamar is a pleasure to work with! We were planning to just renew our mortgage with the current lender at a higher rate just to avoid any hassles. Ester contacted us before we did and was able to get us a significantly lower rate, and did all the work for us. It was probably easier than resigning out old mortgage, and we saved tons of money. Highly recommended!!We just purchased our second home through Tekamar and we would hands down reccomend Tom and Richard! Everything was very straight forward and thorough! They really go the extra mile working behind the scenes and are very knowledgeable!...

(and a couple dozen more)Getting a mortgage without a broker, is a bit like DIY dentistry
Sure you could pull the tooth out yourself, but having a dentist would probably help.
Getting advice from a mortgage broker means making the right plan today, so you can start working towards your mortgage-free tomorrow.
Helping people beat the banks since 1979.
Tekamar Mortgages has been based in Salmon Arm, BC since 1979. In that time we've worked with thousands of people across Canada.
We built our business on repeat customers. The plan was simple: treat every customer like somone we'd like to work with again and again until they were mortgage free, then make a plan to get them there. Nearly half a century later and so far it has worked.
95% of Tekamar's customers returned for their second, third and even fourth mortgages. We're pretty proud of that, and would love the opportunity to show you why so many people trust us with one of their biggest decisions.
